Spongeables - Shower Gel in a Sponge

Hi ladie! I hope you had a very merry Christmas, had a great time with family and ate tons of vegetarian food!    I mainly spent Christmas Eve and the day of Christmas working at the hotel, watching Christmas movies, playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (present from my boyfriend, thanks baby!) and drinking plenty of hot chocolate with marshmallows. I also cooked a little as we're having my father, brothers and the girlfriends and boyfriends over tonight.

Today I wanted to introduce you to a great product I have never heard of before, the Spongeables!

Spongeables products have a patent pending infusion technology that combines cleansing soaps and gels and effective skin care ingredients into a hypoallergenic, anti-microbial sponge, creating a long lasting all in one product that exfoliates, cleanses, massages and moisturizes. In beautiful fragrances for the body, feet and hands and for men, women and children. The patent pending time release infusion process guarantees a minimum number of uses. For instance the shower sponges last for 20 plus uses.

I was very lucky to be kindly sent a shower sponge in White Rose and a Pedi-Scrub foot buffer in Citron Eucalyptus Aromatherapy. I must say I was super curious about these products and I totally didn't know what to expect from them, Yes, I was sceptical, but I was actually super pleased with the Spongeables!

Spongeables is no ordinary bath treat. Each buffer contains a perfect infusion of gentle gel celanser, healthy botanicals, essential vitamins, antioxidants and moisturizers. It's all topped off with a feel-so-good exfoliating texture that whisks away dry skin, massages way aches, pains and tension, soothes tired muscles and buffs skin to a healthy, gorgeous glow.

First of all, I didn't expect the Spongeables to lather like crazy but I was happily surprised to experience a thick, creamy lather with the shower sponge. With the foot buffer, however, there was some foam but it's significantly thinner and less luxurious and I also had to rub it a lot to get some foam.


The White Rose shower sponge didn't really smell anything - it was pleasant but I was expecting the scent to be a little heavier. It doesn't linger on the skin after either. The Pedi-Scrub foot buffer smells amazing though! It's a real pleasure to use on tired feet as the super strong and minty smell is enough itself to rejuvenate your senses.

Unlike the shower sponge, the foot buffer has two distinct textures: one side is soft and gentle to cleanse and moisturize, while the other side as a super scrubby texture that smoothes away rough skin and stimulates circulation. Let me warn you though: do NOT try to use the exfoliating side of the Pedi-Scrub on your body as it's just too abrasive - at least for me! I really wanted to give it a try on another part of my body than my feet because I'm too ticklish to scrub my feet with it, but it was a bad idea! After scrubbing my left arm, my skin started to burn and I was left with red patches of irritated skin. Oh well, lesson learned!

I love how these sponges do everything at once (cleanse, exfoliate, massage and moisturize) as it's great if you are in a hurry and it's truly like a spa in a shower. The shower sponge is not too rough, just perfect, and as I was expecting, the foot buffer is more abrasive but it's perfect for use on your feet.

The shower sponge retails at $7.99 and it's also available in Lavender Nectar and the Pedi-Scrub foot buffer retails at $6.99 and it's also available in Lavender-Tea Tree Oil Aromatherapy at Farleyco.ca.
